MBA Degree in Less Than 2 Months!

How I was able to get my MBA degree in less than 2 months & How I completed my Bachelor's degree in just over 3 months at Western Governors University. Accelerated degrees are awesome at WGU.

[@tyevaught8506]

You 100% inspired me to SUPER-ACCELERATE...I started the MBA on 3/1/2021 and I just completed C207 Data-Driven Decision Making today 4/2/2021...never thought I would be 9 classes in after 33 days. I am a full-time division manager of a government agency I am out the door at 7 a.m. and home after 6 p.m. I have pulled a lot of all-nighters and not been much fun socially but, it is all paying off.

Congrats. With that type of experience, the biz management program will be natural for you. The only tip I have is to make time in your schedule to study and work on school. Commit your weekends to school until you finish. It’s not super easy but it’s doable and requires the sacrifice (for awhile). Best of luck!

I have been going to WGU for almost a year and due to graduate in June all I have left is economics and operations management plus capstone but I must say you are an absolute beast for finishing it so quickly. If you dedicate enough time I think 1 term is quite doable but I don't think for 100 grand even after recently taking these classes that I would be able to retake and pass accounting for decision makers and financial management in 9 days on top of fitting ethical leadership in there. To be fair ethical leadership is quite easy and can easily be finished in a couple days but those other 2 classes were really difficult for me and what makes matter worse is the OAs word things differently than the PA and text books which threw me off quite a lot

[@bostonbeanman6173]

I got my BS in cybersecurity at WGU. It took me 3 terms but could have done it in 2. Kind of sucked taking a term with only 3 classes and that is the other side of expectations with WGU. If you don't accelerate, it can cost the same as other online schools. However, I'm considering getting my MBA now and while I would prefer to do it at any other online school as to not "stack" at the same place, I am drawn back to WGU and hopeful that I could finish this in a single term.

Hi Tyler, first of all congratulations!!! What you did and accomplished within the timeframe is awesome! I work full time plus have a young child. If I wanted to complete the MBA within two terms (1 year), how many hours a week am I looking at for coursework and studying? If I did 3-4 hours Monday thru Friday and 8-10 hours on weekend would that be enough to complete within a year? I'm just looking for a general idea and guesstimate. I'm sure a lot of factors will play into how long it will take for me to complete. Thank you

[@tylermaxey7481]

It’s hard to say. My way of doing things is set a goal and figure out the rest along the way. I think it can be done with that time commitment. It’s only 11 courses for the MBA program. Make it your mission to do 1 per month no matter what. That way you’re on track to hit your goal and you give yourself an extra month incase you need extra time with any of the courses. Totally doable I think.

What was your prior work experience before taking on the MBA program and approximately how many hours would you say you spent studying?

[@tylermaxey7481]

My past experience was eclectic before completing the MBA program at WGU. I had about 3 years consultative sales and marketing experience as well as a few years in facilities management. The past experience definitely helped with completing this program as fast as I did. As far as the study time, I would work about 8-10 hours most days with it. I had a goal to finish as fast as possible. However, it’s totally flexible to fit around your life and schedule.

[@gstoner8432]

On the IT side, the pre-tests were often no where near the kind of questions you saw on the OA exams. Is the Business side any better? I just got my BS in CyberSecurity and thinking of doing the MBA first (for overall managerial viewpoint) and then my Masters in CyberSecurity (for my technical mastery).

[@tylermaxey7481]

They definitely do a good job of making the OA different than the pre-test. I just made sure I was studying the concepts that the pretest focused on rather than just trying to study the questions themselves. I’m sure it’s very similar to the IT program.

[@tylermaxey7481]

I only worked with other WGU students 1 time throughout my entire time enrolled. That was the MBA capstone project. However, they changed it so you no longer work with a team. To pass each class you have to pass either an objective assessment (multiple choice exam) or a performance assessment (written essay, or presentation). Some classes require both but only a few. The objective assessments are proctored via webcam by an actual person who can see you and your workspace to prevent the use of any study material or coursework.

The capstone was really challenging but I had a great time doing it. It’s essentially a simulation where you make decisions over 7 rounds (7 years) you have to carefully consider all effects of each decision you make with the goal of growth. It was challenging at first but you get practice rounds to get a feel for it. Overall it took me about 2 weeks to finish it.

I've heard MBA's can open up more doors tho cuz of the well rounded curriculum.

[@tylermaxey7481]

Job hunting was pretty rough due to me graduating and starting my job hunt in 3/2020 right as Covid really hit. I did about 15-20 different interview processes with different companies and did very well in many of them however, I encountered multiple “hiring freezes” and heavy competition in the area I live in. I landed the position I have currently in 8/2020 and have even turned down a few really good offers as well. I do have about 15 years of work experience that really helped me get through WGUs program as well as get the offer for the position I have. However, the MBA definitely did open up a lot more doors and Iv never once 2nd guessed my decision to peruse it.

When I was in the program I was attacking it full time. I got a little crazy with it at times and would put in 10-12hr days. My rule was to put in as much as much as my brain could handle on a given day. Finishing the program was my number 1 priority at the time so I was pretty relentless in my approach.

[@vaibhavdhanani159]

Any advice on how you did 7 classes in one month? How can I do it too?

[@tylermaxey7481]

A lot of it was stuff Iv had prior experience with. However, I would take the pretest to see where my knowledge was on the subject, then I would using the course material efficiently to touch up on the areas I needed more learning on. As well as flash card sets from quizlet.com, Then I would take the test. I only failed one test throughout both the bachelor and master program but if you do you can retake it twice I believe before having to pay a retake fee. That may be different now so don’t quote me on that.

@@tylermaxey7481 How did you use Quizlet.com? Do they have flash cards specific to the MBA courses?

Do you need a Bachelor’s in business or a related field/prior knowledge to do an MBA?

[@montyuchiha8530]

Nope any degree will work

[@altshiftglow9522]

Your masters doesn't have to be related to your bachelor's at all. I know people who get bachelor's in IT related fields but get a masters in business, education, etc.

How did you get through C213 so fast? I'm struggling...

[@tylermaxey7481]

I got lucky while doing my associates degree at a community college and had an amazing accounting teacher. I took 3 different accounting classes with her and really had a solid understanding before going into the accounting classes at WGU.

[@ji2157]

Hi, may i ask if how much is the tuition fee and other probable fees in WGU?

[@tylermaxey7481]

I believe it was $3400 per 6month term for the bachelors program and $4200 per 6month term for the masters program. That included everything.

[@AdamMaley]

I'm worried about Applied Statistics and Applied Algebra, I'm at a pre-alg - algebra 1level. >_

[@tylermaxey7481]

I was worried about these two as well. They definitely took a bit more time but all the course work is there to prepare you. Just devote yourself to getting through it and doing what is necessary to learn the competencies and before you know it you’ll be on the the next course.

No I approached it full time while living off savings. That was part of my motivation to finish quickly. Lol

How many hours per day / week did you spend studying?

[@tylermaxey7481]

As many as my brain could handle. Usually 10-12 per day. 7 days a week. Maybe took 3 days off total.

[@patriciaikeda2608]

How much time a day did you spend on your classes?

[@tylermaxey7481]

Most days I spent about 8-12hrs on it. on the weekends I would only do 4-5 unless I had nothing going on. I had a goal to finish as fast as possible because I had the time and wanted to spend as little money as possible on it. So I put everything I had into it and didnt let up until I was finished. The great thing about WGU is you can do that. or you can dedicate an hour or 2 a day. Whatever works best for your situation.

Few questions as a international student trying to get my bachelor's degree thru WGU 1. U directly went to assessments and passed them. What if we fail? 2. The flat fee per term? What I finish like in 4 months will I have to pay the remaining months fee as well?

[@aqdusaarba]

As an international student you can’t really join WGU at the moment. They accept only those living in the US.

[@oddpotential]

@@aqdusaarba hi. Thanks for replying I have found the alternative to wgu so will likely be going to tesu. While getting most of the credits from sophia.

[@aqdusaarba]

@@oddpotential does it allow to finish a degree in a less time period as well?

[@tylermaxey7481]

1. I didn’t go directly to the assessment. I went to the pre-assessment to get a feel for what the assessment would be like. I studied the competencies I needed to based on how I did on the pre-assessment. If you fail the assessment I believe you get 1 retake for free, then have to pay a fee of some sort for additional try’s. 2. It’s a flat fee per term. You finish in 1 month or 5 months the tuition is the same flat fee.

[@brandonwells1307]

How many tries do you get at the tests for each section?

[@tylermaxey7481]

I think 2. Then if you need more than that they charge some type of fee. Not sure what the fee is. I only needed a second attempt for class during my time at WGU.

Can you repeat the assessments?

[@tylermaxey7481]

Yes. I think you get 1 chance to repeat the assessment and then there is some type of fee for each attempt after the second. I had to retake 1 exam. Never needed a 3rd attempt so not too sure on the exact cost.

Is the assessment the same question as the actual exam?

No I was able to take some time off of working to dedicate my time fully to finishing school. I’d say one of my greatest motivations to finish as fast as possible was seeing how quickly my savings account was dwindling.

Is it possible to complete bachelors in 6 months?

[@tylermaxey7481]

Depending on how many credits you need to finish & amount of time you can commit per week. For me, I had 79 credits needed to finish my bachelors. I was able to commit full time and was able to finish everything in less than 3 months. Not sure what your situation is, but I think i could have finished in 6 months putting 3-4 hours per day in at least.
